Samurai Western: Katsugeki Samurai-dou - PS2 NTSC-J Japan Game. Condition is "Good".
**Please note: This is for the Japanese PS2 console or region free mod consoles!
Samurai Gojiro Kiryuu comes to the American West in search of his brother. His journey takes him to a corrupt town ruled by a sinister land baron named Goldberg. Though Gojiro isn't interested in righting wrongs, he is soon caught up in the town's problems: killing highway robbers, protecting a woman from would-be rapists, and thwarting Goldberg's machinations. Focused on destroying Gojiro, Goldberg unleashes an endless stream of minions... all fodder for Gojiro's blade. But Goldberg has an ace up his sleeve...
Samurai Western is a third-person action game. Gojiro's blade is more than a match for Old West weaponry as he can ably deflect or sidestep bullets. As Gojiro completes levels, he upgrades his skills, unlocks new swords and stances, and adds Western accessories to his wardrobe. Primarily a single-player game, Samurai Western has a two player co-op mode and unlockable characters for both modes.
Samurai Western continues the tale begun in Way of the Samurai and its first sequel, following the noble swordsman as he travels across the Pacific to continue his search for his brother. As in the earlier games, Western is designed to give the player great influence over the adventure, through ambivalent situations and a branching storyline. Action revolves around fast-paced combat.
CHARACTERS:
- Gojiro Kiryu: The main character who recently arrived in America from Japan in order to find his missing brother Rando. Stern and tacit, he is driven only by his pursuit of honor and the warrior's code.
- Ralph: A mysterious gunman who quickly becomes an ally of Gojiro, providing him with information and help in fighting Goldberg. He is, in reality, a U.S. Army officer tasked with the mission of gathering information necessary to bring Goldberg to justice.
- Rando Kiryu: Gojiro's older brother. Once an honorable samurai, he was defeated in combat by a gun-wielding enemy, causing him to lose faith in the traditional mode of combat to which he was familiar. As a result, he abandoned both his homeland and samurai ways, coming to America to master the use of guns himself.
- Claudia: An attractive woman who runs a local saloon. The current situation of the town has left her in a sour mood, causing her to be unfriendly to strangers. She is a friend of Rando, and after meeting Gojiro can not understand the conflict between them. She tries unsuccessfully to convince them to mend their relationship without the use of violence.
- Anne: A teenage girl who resides in a local ghost town. As all of the adults of the town had been captured and forced into servitude by Goldberg, she is left in charge of taking care of the town's children. Gojiro comes to the aid of her and her charges several times.
- Donald: The sheriff of the town. Overweight and somewhat dimwitted, he has a good heart and is intent on dispensing justice to his town. After an initial misunderstanding with Gojiro, he becomes a friend and ally. Coming to greatly admire the honorable samurai way, he aspires to become one himself.
- Goldberg: A ruthless tycoon who rules the region with an iron fist. Obsessed with creating his own utopia in the American West at any means necessary, he has hired many thugs and outlaws to do his bidding.
